Teaspoons of Change for Sustainability & Regeneration in Outdoor Education
d’Arcy Lunn
In outdoor education we can engage learners in the outdoor context with sustainability and regeneration, and not just in terms of less plastic but connecting them personally with the outdoors, with their actions and with the potential for positive impact. Adding to what is already being done, we can add a collective and individual context to the learning opportunities provided in the outdoor environment.
This is an interactive presentation with provocations, discussion and exploration on sustainability, regeneration and global citizenship that will ultimately enhance learning for students and the offering to schools.
There is a wonderful opportunity and growing demand for outdoor educators and providers to align their programs with the very best practices in sustainability and regeneration and this workshop explores beyond the surface of sustainability not just being something we do, but a part of who we are… Come and add value to your offerings and engagement with students!
